To be or not to be (jealous)

Hi all: my hubby was part of a chat room a few years ago where he became pretty close with a girl that was married and lived in another state. Needless to say I found out about it, became extremely jealous and forbid him to talk to her again- he said that he loved her as a friend. I know it was rather foolish of me to think he would never chat with another person again. I found out today he is chatting and I freaked out, not sure if male or female but I feel like he should be talking to me and if not why not, he barely talks to me and I feel like this will drive a wedge between us. Oh, what to do?? Should I be jealous of this or not?? I guess I am more jealous than I thought. The what if the person is really nearby, will he cheat on me etc. will drive one to drink if they really think about it. Very selfconcious overweight woman talking here...

It's not all that different than you being here, if you get support you need here why can't he seek support also? There is always a chance of unexpected emotions in real life and online. Ya'll need to talk and discuss boundaries.

There is absolutely no difference in his getting online and chatting than you getting on here and chatting either through posts, messages, hugs, or actual chatting when it works. You have a double standard. One for him and one for you. Perhaps your jealousy is fear of what you would do or are doing.

Speaking from experience, don't ignore this. I would hope he would agree to marriage counseling regardless whether he's cheating on you or not. Sounds like maybe you two could use the help with communication? Hope you can find a way to communicate with him effectively! Good luck.

The thing is that I was the one who anwered the call of a jealous husband that is how I found out about his &quot;chatting&quot; it was more than just talking he was &quot;emotionally involved&quot; where I am not on here!!!

Counseling is a good idea .
since it has been an issue in the past you are naturally going to be sensitive about it now.It may be innocent but if you guys set some boundaries then you would probably not feel as insecure and paranoid.Set ones you both can live with.Communication is the key to a good relationship.JMO

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
